This exceptional bungalow in highly sought-after Preston has been comprehensively refurbished to an impressive standard by the current owners. Improvements include new kitchen and reconfigured ensuite and bathroom, new boiler relocated to the garage, upgraded windows and new glazed sliding doors and side lights in the sitting room, smoothed ceilings throughout, new Karndean flooring, full redecoration and a completely redesigned, landscaped garden. The result is a stylish, truly inviting, light- filled home of exceptional quality.
Steps lead up to the front door which opens into a light ENTRANCE HALL with elegant arched interior opening. From here doors lead to the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM, a generous front facing double, featuring a shallow bay window that draws in plenty of natural light and offers views over the neighbourhood and hills beyond. An expanse of fitted wardrobes with both hanging space and shelves provide excellent storage. A door leads to the stylishly reconfigured ensuite shower room, complete with shower cubicle, W.C, basin, two mirrored cabinets, radiator and an obscure-glass side window.
BEDROOM TWO, also a front-facing generous double, benefits from a full wall of fitted wardrobes providing ample storage space. From the hall, steps lead down to an inner lobby with a shelved airing cupboard with radiator, and an interior wall aperture overlooking the dining room. To the rear, is BEDROOM THREE, a comfortable single, currently utilised as a study.
A door leads into the impressive double-aspect KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM, newly fitted with sleek, white, wall and base cabinets, composite worktops and splashbacks, task lighting and atmospheric plinth lighting. Integrated appliances include a tall NEFFfridge freezer, Zanussi six-place dishwasher, Zanussi washing machine, and a Russell Hobbs five-ring ceramic hob with oven below and extractor above. Pull-out wired larder drawers add practicality, while a 1½ bowl ceramic sink and drainer, with mixer tap, sits beneath the window. There is ample space for a breakfast table and chairs beside the large rear window enjoying lovely garden views. A part-glazed door provides access to the side passage and garden.
From the lobby, further steps lead down to the wonderfully light and generously sized dual aspect SITTING ROOM, where new sliding doors and side lights open onto the paved terrace and landscaped garden, allowing the outside in. An impressive electric, colour-changing flame effect fire with remote, creates a striking focal point and ensures a cosy atmosphere.
Adjoining, yet nicely secluded, is the rear-aspect DINING ROOM, offering space for a large table and chairs, perfect for entertaining or family meals.
